“There’s been a great deal of interest in Andrews Reach,” Coldwell Banker Sea Coast Advantage’s Sandy Monroe attests. “Even people self-invested in real estate are eyeing lots here. They know a fantastic opportunity when they see one.” Located off Masonboro Loop Road, this serene midtown marvel offers spacious lots set against lush natural areas and picturesque Hewlett’s Creek. “Residents are already enjoying the clubhouse and swimming pool. There are plans for a pier, kayak launch and boathouse as well,” Monroe says. “We’ll soon see kids building forts along the shore or gliding along in a peaceful boat ride with their parents.”

The community’s location in the heart of residential Wilmington is simply unmatched. “We’re only a half mile walk from Parsley Elementary School,” Monroe says. “We’re 10 minutes from the hospital and all sorts of shopping. We’re five minutes from Hugh MacRae Park. You can stroll right across the street to Halligan’s Public House or Siena Trattoria for dinner,” he adds. “We’re close to Trails End Boat Ramp, two golf courses and just 10 minutes from Wrightsville Beach. This is the kind of neighborhood that appeals to families, professionals and retirees alike.”

“You would be hard pressed to find a neighborhood with a better location, school district and natural setting overlooking the creek than Andrews Reach,” Intracoastal Realty’s Eva Elmore believes. “There is a market for custom construction under $500K and these two reputable local builders have hit that target. From my experience with Charter Building Group, I know they work very closely with clients to customize each home plan and provide customer service throughout the building process.”

With over 50 years of construction experience, Richard Donaldson with Charter Building Group and Samm Jernigan of Jernigan Homes recognized a wise investment in Andrews Reach last fall. Excelling in quality craftsmanship and boasting an impressive portfolio of their finest work in other local upscale neighborhoods, these two builders share the rare ability to work with any client no matter how demanding. Before he became Coldwell Banker Sea Coast Advantage’s Vice President, Tom Spencer found himself selling a Jernigan home plan to an engineer. “When this client showed me his notebook with 30 pages of notes of what he wanted in his home, I thought, ‘This can only end in disaster.’ But Samm Jernigan took it totally in stride and a few months later when my clients were proudly showing me their new home, they frequently said, ‘Now Samm suggested we change this - and he was right.’ It was a win for everyone.”

Gorgeous three and four bedroom homes start at $380,000. Low maintenance exteriors feature a variety of traditional French Countryside designs. Interiors showcase classic luxury with details like 10-foot ceilings and eight-foot doors, crown molding, hardwood floors, granite kitchen countertops, ceramic tile baths, well-crafted built-ins and extras in every room. “These builders will gladly make custom changes to their plans for each client,” Monroe adds. “You’ll find you have a lot of flexibility with their proven semi-custom approach - something that’s usually only offered in much more expensive custom home builds.”

“We’re beginning to see prices of new homes rise as the housing market enters a full recovery phase,” Monroe cautions. “I think it’s obvious that a place like Andrews Reach is a rare opportunity in any market.

The Andrews Reach Developers are recording Phase 2 of the community much earlier than anticipated as Phase 1 is nearly sold out. Phase 2 properties will be available in late May 2013.”
